| Features | Full
When you install X410 from Microsoft Store, X410 runs in a secure sandbox and there are some limitations compared to the Standalone version. Available options and user interface for each version reflect those limitations. However, such differences are minimal (ex. Microsoft Store version doesn't have a license activation menu as it's managed via the Store app); the core features and functions of X410 are the same for both versions. |

You should also be able to get better pricing as Microsoft Store has its own promotion deals and incentive programs for purchasing apps. |
